That I'm a girl now. Would have blown their mind that it was even possible. But then would have been disappointed in me for not having made a video game yet.

I was about to comment the same thing lol. Even the video game part.

Honestly though, I feel like there's a chance I wouldn't have been surprised cause I feel like I subconsciously knew back then but just didn't understand it or know the words to describe it.

I always felt a kinship with girls while growing up and often thought of it as the idea that men and women really weren't as different as people kept saying they were.

No kid, you're trans. You weren't a shining example of how a boy can get along with girls. You were just a girl among other girls.

That's me NOW, too! Maybe if enough of us get together we can cobble something together to appease our childhood selves

But with how abusive the game industry is, makes me never want to get a job at a company that makes games. But that also means I have a full time job doing something else, and the idea of doing my job and coming home to work on my passion project game also sounds nightmarish.

As someone who recently came out, I was kinda hoping that this would be here. It is a pretty wild thought

[–] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago

So what kind of game are you making?

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Estradiol is fucking magical.

[–] Tywele@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 days ago

Estrogen in general I would say.
